Brilliant Campfire In the
Evening.

ID. 10th Vermont Volunteers, that
came off on Tuesday at SO. London
derry was successful in every partic-
uar. The day was fine, and the
Company seemed to drink in its in
spiration to its fullest extent; and the
hearty shake of the hand, as COM
rade greeted comrade, bespake more
than an ordinary meeting of friends.
This company was raised, princi-
pally, in this town, Jamaica, Towns
bend, Windham and Wardsboro, but
are now widely scattered. Thirty
nine were present and few an
swered the call by letter. They
came to So. Londonderry by invita-
ton of Hooker Post and were met at
the station, upon the arrival of the /
O'Clock train by committee of the
Post who escorted them to the town
hall. AT the hall the time was pleas
antly spent in visiting till l o'clock
when the company formed in line
and marched to the vestry of the
Baptist church where they found a
sumptuous dinner prepared by the
w. II. c., and to which ample JUS
tice was done. The company then
again formed in line and marched to
the SITTER Office making il compli-
mentary visit, thence to the hall
where they were welcomed in a neat
little speech by A. f. Cudworth,
Esq. DR.. j. l.. Harrington of Owa-
tonna, Mimi, who was also soldier,
enlisted from Weston responded to
an invitation to speak and amused
the company by giving an imitation
of Surgeons call" Interesting re-
marks, in response to invitations,
were made by comrades, j. d. Hol-
brook, Ellery Tenney and James o..
Follett. Letters were then read from
comrades, W. W. Bemis, Royal M.
Flint, Calvin r. Wheeler and Mrs.
Col. W. G. Veazy, who responded
III behalf of her husband. who is now
in Europe, but is expected home the
first of September. S. ID. Arnold
and j. O. Follett, responded to the
toast, son the march," Further re-
marks were made by II. II. Holbrook,
A. j. Stearns, H. F. Franklin, l..
p. Bailey and Dexter Wait.
At this point the stirring song,
sold New England was sung by
comrades after which remarks were
made by an old townsman of London
derry, Danl. Davis, who when the
company was enlisted was selectman
and assisted in the recruiting. His
